The above list shows some measurements from trusted grub, e.g. those 
after the first IPL Partition Data are from trusted grub.
The spec doesn't say which ones are optional but we are more on the 
'light' side in terms of measurements.

Will do. Maybe even remove them or reference via title. The numbers 
changed with different versions of the specs.

Will look into it.

I did this assuming that we will eventually have to return from int18.

Option ROMs will always be scanned, so ok, I'll also move it into 
tpm_start(). The intention previously was to do the measurements at the 
location where corresponding 'action' happens, but I think you don't 
want the code to be filled with these calls.

It works the way it is. I can move it, though.

Definitely.
